Then their is the famous foxhole athiest's conversion prayer adjusted for pick ups in bars, " If you let me nail her, I promise that I will serve You forever." But that might not be answered unless it is a special Dionysios Feast Day in heaven.

When I think of all the makeup that college loan could have bought. Dammit!

When I was young, I knew people in the high end escort business in Beverly Hills. Many of the working girls were highly educated, including lawyers. They all had well planned out futures that did not involve using their degrees much. Looking good, just pays better...for a while, and getting rich young and quick is hard to beat.

Palladian... very funny Palladian. Actually liscensed attorneys are new to the whore business because Legal Ethics forbid they divulge confidential pillow talk confessions. It's almost as good as a Catholic Priests confessions priviledge.

She has moved into the P T Barnum territory, where there is a new socially untrained man born every second. For which I blame their mothers.

If her Profession is actually a Life Coach, then hot sex with the pick up babes is a small area of her skills curriculum.

I guess I don't understand going through law school, taking the bar exam, then dropping it for some foolishness like this. Why couldn't she continue as an attorney and moonlight or have this service as a avocation.

If my daughter dropped her career as an attorney after me helping her out financially during those years, she would get the Jewish mother guilt trip big time.

I suspect she may have sustained brain damage during her near death experience.

Allie, I would guess that this pays better, is more fun, and she has the freedom to decide her own level of success; and to make her own hours and working conditions. I noticed that your pic is turning back to the left and that's probably why you don't appreciate the freedom component. Beside she probably gets lots of sex, but that's more bipartisan.

Interesting. Stories like these-- of a sudden dramatic life metamorphosis, personality metamorphosis-- have a big mystery at their center. It's an archetypal narrative of metanoia-- conversion-- but in this case what she's converted to is baffling, and the pivot point is totally opaque.

One remote possibility (especially given the unspecified "near-death experience") is that she suffered some kind of brain injury causing personality change. One possible result of brain injury is loss of inhibitions, e.g. sexual inhibitions, prompting a dramatic change in sexual behavior.

Allie...I always thought you were right handed. But, whatever. I bet you would make a great life coach for young ladies and young men. Their parents could hire you and you could do a mother's training job on them after they get out of college and need some social skills training.

I have a friend who got her JD from UCLA, then passed the bar, then went to seminary for her MA, and now is finishing up her PhD in early Christian studies, getting a full fellowship at one of the most prestigious places to study that topic. One of the smartest people I know, both academically and in choosing to basically start over again in her higher education and pursue what she loved to study.

My daughter is a lawyer, passed the Washington and California bar, and is an FBI agent. She runs recruiting in southern California and I'll bet she has plenty of applicants. The IT guy from the firm I worked for a few years ago applied and went to Quantico. I doubt they are looking fro many new agents now.
